A 94 mm waist on a 129-94-109 mm shape keeps the ski quick edge to edge, and the Amphibio Profile, an asymmetric layout that cambers the inside edge and rockers the outside edge, makes turn entry take less muscle. At 1,500 g per ski at 168 cm, on a radius map that runs from 12.8 m at 147 cm to 16.8 m at 175 cm, the W Ripstick 94 rewards a skier who wants a light ski that still finishes a turn.\u003c\/p\u003e\n

Radius runs 12.8 m at 147 cm to 16.8 m at 175 cm, so a skier who likes short quick turns in trees is well served at 154 cm or 161 cm, while a skier who opens turns up on wide groomers gains stability at 168 cm or 175 cm. Chin height is a starting point and nothing more. Tell us how fast you ski and where, and we will pick between two lengths rather than five.\u003c\/p\u003e\n      \u003cp\u003eElan pairs the W Ripstick 94 with an Attack LYT 11, and the brake needs to clear the 94 mm waist, so 95 mm to 110 mm is the working range. Match the binding to your boot sole norm rather than to the ski, since the ski does not care and the binding does. Bring your boots in and we will set the mount against your own sole length.\u003c\/p\u003e\n      \u003cp\u003eOne thing to know before the first run: the asymmetric profile makes this a left ski and a right ski, and both are marked.

Five lengths from 147 to 175 cm run 12.8 m to 16.8 m of radius, which is a real range of turn shapes rather than a token size run.
